Something I have come to really love in quarantine is creating meals from what I already have in my freezer. I kind of feel like I’m on an episode of Chopped in my own kitchen. I found this bag of Mexican Style Roasted with Cotija Cheese in my freezer and created this with what i had on hand. It was a huge hit, and it took less than 30 minutes to make!
Ingredients
1 lb ground turkey breast
6 flour tortillas
1 package Trader Joe’s Mexican Style Roasted Corn with Cotija Cheese
1 packet taco seasoning
1 medium yellow onion
1 tbsp olive oil
Oil spray (olive oil or canola oil)
1 package ready brown rice
Guacamole or other toppings of choice (optional)
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- On the bottom part of a muffin tin, spray with canola or olive oil, then place flour tortillas in the crevices to make mini bowls. Spray tortillas with oil.
- Place in the oven for 18-20 minutes, or until tortillas are firm and crisped.
- Place a small saucepan over medium heat and heat the Trader Joe’s Mexican Style Roasted Corn according to package directions.
- In a separate skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat, Then add diced onion until translucent.
- Add in ground turkey breast and fully brown the meat.
- Once fully browned, add in 1 cup of water and taco seasoning. Mix with turkey until fully combined.
- Cook rice (I use microwaveable rice, so cook according to package directions).
- Once all components are finished cooking, take out the taco shells, place in a layer of rice, a layer of ground turkey, a layer of the Mexican Style Roasted Corn mixture, some guacamole, and cotija cheese (that comes with the Trader Joe’s package).
- Serve and enjoy!
